A homeless sexual predator on parole was arrested about 3 p.m. Wednesday for failing to register his address, Stark County Jail records said.

Foster J. Jenkins, 38, was jailed on a first-degree felony charge of failure to give notice of his change of address.

The Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction website lists him as a sexual predator who is on parole after serving eight years in prison for two counts of rape and three counts of gross sexual imposition on a victim under 13. He was released from prison in 2010, the records show.

His address was listed as 405 Third St. NE, which is the Refuge of Hope Ministries.

Jenkins remained in the jail early Thursday, held without bond pending hearings.
